But once they become a State (IF they become a State), won't they then be able to enlist the help from other Arab countries to "take back the Land that is theirs" (from Israel)? Their intent is not a State, their intent is to destroy the Israelis. Even if the Jews did not occupy Israel. They (Jews) could occupy Rhode Island and the PLO, etc., would still want to push them into the sea. Maybe not ALL Palestinians, but darn near.

all the Arab States, and non muslim States are already not only helping the palestinian's terrorism against Israel, they are leading it, and providing all the financial muscle behind it. If Palestine becomes a state, and the palestinians continue to wage terrorism against Israel, Israel can formally declare war on Palestine. If the Arab States continue to help palestine in terrorism, then the are in effect have declared war on Israel, which will allow Israel to defend itself(with Nuclear weapons if necessary), and not be condemed by the world as an aggressor. IMHO, I don't think the Arabs will go to war against Israel, they have done this in the past, and have lost everytime, and bigtime. The Money from the Western Democtratic States will also almost certainly stop going to the palestinians. Checkmate on arafat! Hence the last thing arafat wants is Statehood for Palestine. Proof: clinton offered him the universe for peace, and a palestine State, and arafat refused it.
